This ain't about Nappy Hair

Don Imus gets a hand slap. Imus show will be suspended for two weeks. That's enough time for Sharpton and Jackson to cut some deals. In the meantime, the young women of Rutgers, whose got their backs?

Imus made his remark the day after the Rutgers team, which includes eight black women, lost the NCAA women's championship game to Tennessee. He was speaking with producer Bernard McGuirk and said "that's some rough girls from Rutgers. Man, they got tattoos ..."

"Some hardcore hos," McGuirk said.

"That's some nappy-headed hos there, I'm going to tell you that," Imus
said.

It appears Bernard MGuirk was the instigator in the hoes episode. Imus not to be outdone, attached the nappiness to the players. So if the sistas are not hoes or nappy-headed, where is the lawsuit?

Now I understand the National Organization for Women has gotten into the mix. Now you don't upset raced white women. Cause if momma not happy....

Imus could be in real danger if the outcry causes advertisers to shy away from him, said Tom Taylor, editor of the trade publication Inside Radio. The National Organization for Women is also seeking Imus' ouster.

NOW is a political organization. They got a form letter for you to send to the spokesperson, a woman, Karen Mateo, Communications VP of CBS Radio which owns WFAN, and to MSNBC television which airs and promotes the show:

I thought I had heard everything from the "shock jocks," but the statements made about the Rutgers players by Don Imus and Bernard McGuirk after the NCAA championship game hit a new low.

My disgust at the statements of Imus and McGuirk are exceeded only by my outrage that nothing has been done beyond a weak "apology" and a promise to watch the show more closely.

The Rutgers team worked hard and played hard, rising to compete in the national women's collegiate basketball championship.

These players deserve better from us, and from you, than hateful and insulting remarks.

Racism and sexism have no place on the air.

I ask you to take immediate action to remove both Don Imus and Bernard McGuirk from any role that permits them to continue spewing hatred and bigotry over the airwaves.

Are they fighting for the sistas? Or are you trying to get some free time for the sister, Hillary? You do know that NOW is a political action committee that endorsed Hillary? Pay attention !!! Ronald L. Martin was paying attention.

In bold print, I highlighted the important stuff. Now read in what order they have racial stuff. I mean (r)ace does come before (s)ex. But that's not how it reads on the website. Check it out, I'm not making this stuff up as I go along. We've been down this road before.

Anita Hill was tricked up when she was sexually harassed on TV. It was really about abortion rights for raced white women, and they did not trust Clarence Thomas for being on their side. But that sexual harassment stuff worked better in getting a whole lot of raced white women elected into Congress in 1992. But, it ain't going to work this time for Hilliary.

So don't let NOW bring in the noise about Hilliary unless the group is bringing in some compensationn for these young women at Rutgers. I don't think any of those women are running for any political office. We saw how Anita Hill was lied on and left out to dry.
